Empty pidfile

Post by zobrak »

Hi !

I'm under 3.2.10.4 version of Unrealircd.

the server starts correctly but wont stop or restart or rehash.

Error message in the console is :

Code: Select all

kill : utilisation : kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec ... ou kill -l [sigspec]
There's a pidfile 'ircd.pid' in the directory unreal runs
There's also a backup pidfil 'ircd.pid.bak'
But they are both empty.

They're owned by the user who run unreal. And if they're not unreal wont start

I've made a search :

Code: Select all

cd / && find -name ircd.pid
The only result i've got is the pidfile mentionned in unrealircd.conf

I d'ont know what I can do. I'm thinking about replacing the kill command in the unreal start script by a 'killall -u ircd' one ?

Try (from your Unrealircd directory):

Code: Select all

./unrealircd stop
